分析:據(jù)絕對值的定義,由已知a=1999,可得|3a3-2a2+4a-1|=3a3-2a2+4a-1,|3a3-3a2+3a-2001|=3a3-3a2+3a-2001,去掉絕對值化簡即可.
解答:解:當a=1999時,|3a3-2a2+4a-1|=3a3-2a2+4a-1,|3a3-3a2+3a-2001|=3a3-3a2+3a-2001,
∴原式=3a3-2a2+4a-1-(3a3-3a2+3a-2001)
=a2+a+2000
=a(a+1)+2000
=1999×2000+2000
=2000×(1999+1)
=4000000.
點評:本題考查絕對值的化簡,正數(shù)的絕對值等于它本身,0的絕對值是0,負數(shù)的絕對值為其相反數(shù).
熟練掌握該知識點是解答本題的關鍵.
